My Colorful Neighborhood

Pic #1. Ok so i saw my neighbors sitting outside but I didn’t want them to see me taking a picture of them so i pretended i was looking at my cell phone and I snapped  pictures with the camera by my side but obvi I have a lot of practicing to do at this because this is the only one they were even in and I had to do A LOT of cropping IF YA KNOW WHAT I MEAN.  All the other ones were of a car about 20 yards away.  Whoops.

 

Pic #2 ok this was right outside my house.  no story, just pretty.

Pic #3. A broken little mirror in the street which I turned over some of the pieces and then squatted on the side of the road and took pictures into basically in oncoming traffic for 7 minutes in my dress.  I knew I would get a magical shot.  And lo and behold…this guy came out!  Kids were trying to jump in front of the camera and jump into me but they did not understand I was taking a picture into the mirror which was one millimeter from the lens.

Pic #4 This piece of trash was under a car but I could not resist taking a picture of it because it was too cute..
#5 oh this is an eye of a bunny on a hat a girl is wearing who has a brown rainbow coming out of her mouth aka puke (in my mind).  It’s a big mural.  It’s really cool.  I took a bunch of pictures but I only fixed up the eye so far.  Oh BT Dubs, since I took this picture they painted over the mural.  So now its a black wall.  Oh and since then it has a grafitti tag.
#6 this is a heart in a window.
#7 as you can see it is the only thing in the window and it is a two-bit medical office! I will show you the original of what it looks like dusty and nasty, but come on people!  a human heart in a window??  How could I not take a picture?
     #8 I thought you would like these curtains!!  They really look like this!
#9. I was trying to find arrows.  this was a no parking sign.
#10 cool window in an abandoned building

#11 Um, pad lock and cross, what can I say?  this was a locked up church.  I just had to squat down and get that lock!

#12 I love this lady, she is one of my neighbors and has the best moo-moos but I don’t have the guts to ask her if I can take a picture so I had to be sly again but I think I got better because all 3 pictures she was actually in.

Of course she was posed perfectly standing out front staring at the sky but she was also looking right at me!!!  She also has the best beehive!!! It is so cute!!  Like 4 feet tall!!

#13 This is the meat market is across from the vet.  It just so happened there were 2 girls passing at that exact moment.  I am toats going over there to take more pictures!

#14 This is the car wash one block from me
#15 This is a little fox on my corner
The other pics are from yesterday and the day before, and here are some more from my walk today!
